so tragic, i can't imagine how his parents are dealing with this
We all do dangerous stuff and have stories that if things were a foot in the other direction it could have been alot worse. My parents weren't motorcyclists, they thought dirtbikes were dangerous so I rode the old atc350x with my friends when I was 13 and could kick start it. I learned how to lean way off the side real quick, but still took my share of diggers, nothing too bad luckily.
My 4 year old son has been on an electric balance bike and pedal bike for a year. A couple months ago he got on a tricycle and tipped it over in about 2 seconds when he went to make a turn, he got up and looked at it like "that doesn't happen on my other bikes" then he asked for his electric back.
I always tell people riding a quad is fighting the thing not to kill you, riding a motorcycle is dancing with a partner.
I know I was doing the similar shit on my grandpas tractors at a young age. Not the best judgement but a lot of us have done it and I wouldn't give the parents a hard time for this accident as they are dealing with a horrible tragedy.
This 5yr old is doing much better than some of you Vitards could:
Bad stuff happens, sometimes it's due to bad judgement...sometimes not.
This is why we are a soft nation now.
It was a sad day when schools removed wood shop, auto shop classes.
It's the "bulldozer" parenting world we live in today.
